From 5dadf34209c288b8fffba1016e6a3c9446381153 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rob Austein Date: Thu, 7 Jun 2007 02:37:32 +0000 Subject: Replace hacked OpenSSL code with OpenSSL 0.9.8e distribution. svn path=/openssl/Makefile; revision=659 --- .../trunk/doc/crypto/DSA_generate_parameters.pod | 105 --------------------- 1 file changed, 105 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 openssl/trunk/doc/crypto/DSA_generate_parameters.pod (limited to 'openssl/trunk/doc/crypto/DSA_generate_parameters.pod') diff --git a/openssl/trunk/doc/crypto/DSA_generate_parameters.pod b/openssl/trunk/doc/crypto/DSA_generate_parameters.pod deleted file mode 100644 index be7c924f..00000000 --- a/openssl/trunk/doc/crypto/DSA_generate_parameters.pod +++ /dev/null @@ -1,105 +0,0 @@ -=pod - -=head1 NAME - -DSA_generate_parameters - generate DSA parameters - -=head1 SYNOPSIS - - #include - - DSA *DSA_generate_parameters(int bits, unsigned char *seed, - int seed_len, int *counter_ret, unsigned long *h_ret, - void (*callback)(int, int, void *), void *cb_arg); - -=head1 DESCRIPTION - -DSA_generate_parameters() generates primes p and q and a generator g -for use in the DSA. - -B is the length of the prime to be generated; the DSS allows a -maximum of 1024 bits. - -If B is B or B E 20, the primes will be -generated at random. Otherwise, the seed is used to generate -them. If the given seed does not yield a prime q, a new random -seed is chosen and placed at B. - -DSA_generate_parameters() places the iteration count in -*B and a counter used for finding a generator in -*B, unless these are B. - -A callback function may be used to provide feedback about the progress -of the key generation. If B is not B, it will be -called as follows: - -=over 4 - -=item * - -When a candidate for q is generated, B is called -(m is 0 for the first candidate). - -=item * - -When a candidate for q has passed a test by trial division, -B is called. -While a candidate for q is tested by Miller-Rabin primality tests, -B is called in the outer loop -(once for each witness that confirms that the candidate may be prime); -i is the loop counter (starting at 0). - -=item * - -When a prime q has been found, B and -B are called. - -=item * - -Before a candidate for p (other than the first) is generated and tested, -B is called. - -=item * - -When a candidate for p has passed the test by trial division, -B is called. -While it is tested by the Miller-Rabin primality test, -B is called in the outer loop -(once for each witness that confirms that the candidate may be prime). -i is the loop counter (starting at 0). - -=item * - -When p has been found, B is called. - -=item * - -When the generator has been found, B is called. - -=back - -=head1 RETURN VALUE - -DSA_generate_parameters() returns a pointer to the DSA structure, or -B if the parameter generation fails. The error codes can be -obtained by L. - -=head1 BUGS - -Seed lengths E 20 are not supported. - -=head1 SEE ALSO - -L, L, L, -L - -=head1 HISTORY - -DSA_generate_parameters() appeared in SSLeay 0.8. The B -argument was added in SSLeay 0.9.0. -In versions up to OpenSSL 0.9.4, B was called -in the inner loop of the Miller-Rabin test whenever it reached the -squaring step (the parameters to B did not reveal how many -witnesses had been tested); since OpenSSL 0.9.5, B -is called as in BN_is_prime(3), i.e. once for each witness. -=cut -- cgit v1.2.3
